Indentation with pgperltidy complains with the attached diff (based on
top of v4).
+printf "Patches should use a more-or-less consecutive range of OIDs.\n";
"Patches should try to use a consecutive range of OIDs"?
Why choosing a random position within [8000,9999]? This leads to the
following messages for example with multiple runs, which is confusing:
Suggested random unused OID: 9473 (527 consecutive OID(s) available
Suggested random unused OID: 8159 (31 consecutive OID(s) available
Suggested random unused OID: 9491 (509 consecutive OID(s) available
Wouldn't it be better to choose the lowest position in the development
range, and then adapt the suggestion based on that? We could
recommend the range if there are at least 10 OIDs available in the
range from the lowest position, and there are few patches eating more
than 5-10 OIDs at once.
